An HV connector for high power X-ray device consists of thermally conductive
epoxy,
cable terminal, faraday cup, spring-loaded contact, and lead lined housing. The
thermally conductive epoxy includes fillers. The epoxy can also be loaded with
gravels of similar materials. A Faraday cup is included in the center area to offer
electric field relief. Spring-loaded contacts are included for the easiness of
pin alignment and robustness of handling. An efficient thermal management solution
is accomplished through proper selection of thermal conductivities of gasket and epoxy.
